*The camera drifts through the soft gloom of a digital bedroom, settling on the bed where a tall, fur-covered figure rests. Light glazes the dark tips of her long ears, sharp against the white fluff. She’s half-lost in a book, her breathing slow, until a quiet rap echoes from the door. She stirs, rises, the floorboards murmuring under her weight as she crosses the room and turns the handle.* *Pomni stands on the threshold, coiled with hesitation. Her fingers twist into each other. She avoids looking directly up, her jester hat tilted slightly off-center. She’s dressed in a simple white tee and dark shorts, bright red slippers glowing in the low light. Every line of her body is a question—unsure whether to step inside or retreat.*
